of change have occurred. Alternatively, he may plot the subjects and depict the boundaries by pecked lines. A note will be added to the face of the plan in the following terms: ‘The boundaries shown by dotted lines have been plotted from the deeds. Physical boundaries will be indicated after their delineation on the ordnance map’. If, at some suitable time in the future, the ordnance map shows the physical boundaries, updated plans will be prepared. Where subjects are not depicted on the ordnance map, the evidence which the  Keeper  will  require  must  include  boundary  measurements.  The  evidence  must  also  include sufficient  additional  information  to  enable  him  to  determine  the  location  of  the  subjects  with reference to some fixed points shown on the ordnance map. 5. Where, in respect of some of the boundaries, reference to the ordnance map shows no physical boundaries, the Keeper will show those boundaries on the title plan by pecked lines as in 4 above, and, for the remaining boundaries for which physical boundaries are disclosed, proceed as (in 1 to 3) above. Survey instructed by the Keeper 4.28 The discrepancy in situation 3 above, between the deed plan or other evidence presented to the Keeper and the ordnance map, may be too large for the Keeper to resolve. He may then instruct a survey by the Ordnance Survey  in  order to  establish the true position as regards  the physical boundary. The expense of any such survey is borne by the Keeper, unless the registration is a voluntary one in either an operational or  non-operational area. The  Keeper may, however, seek recompense  for  the cost of any survey which subsequently proves the ordnance map to be correct and which confirms the discrepancy has  arisen  through  incomplete  or  erroneous  information  supplied  in  support  of  the  application  for registration. If there is a physical object such as a wall or fence close to a boundary, but not itself forming the legal boundary (for example, a railway fence), it will be helpful if the applicant so informs the Keeper. Such information can be useful and may avoid an unnecessary survey or exclusion of indemnity. Where indemnity is excluded 4.29 If the applicant, after receipt of the land certificate, is dissatisfied with exclusion of indemnity, he has a right of appeal to the Lands Tribunal in terms of section 25. In practice, the Keeper will not proceed to issue a land certificate containing an exclusion of indemnity without first consulting the applicant. Prescription may of course operate in favour of the applicant as regards the part from which indemnity  has  been  excluded  (section  10).  In  some  cases,  remedial  conveyancing  or  a  Section  19 Agreement may resolve matters. Where a boundary discrepancy comes to his notice, the Keeper will not take it on himself to make any approach to the neighbouring proprietor. Line of boundary in relation to a physical object 4.30 On first registration of subjects, the Keeper may indicate either by means of blue letters and arrows, or by a black arrow, the line of the boundary in relation to the physical object, as disclosed in the relevant deed accompanying the application. If the boundary is indicated by the arrow and lettering method, the
